This research is aimed at examining the relationship between entrepreneurial

leadership and business performance through entrepreneurial orientation and team

creativity as mediating variables. Based on previous studies, successful

performance of small and medium enterprises is strongly influenced by the

capabilities of the business owner. However, studies related to entrepreneurial

leadership, entrepreneurial orientation, and team creativity variables on business

performance have been scarce. Thus, this study applies all aforementioned

variables. This study uses a quantitative approach with a questionnaire as an

instrument. Research data were obtained from 105 small and medium enterprises’

owners in the Jabodetabek Area. Data were analyzed using partial least squares -

structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM). The results of the study show that

entrepreneurial leadership has a positive relationship on business performance.

However entrepreneurial orientation variable does not act as a mediator between

entrepreneurial leadership and business performance, and the team creativity

variable also does not act as a mediator between entrepreneurial leadership and

business performance variable.
